i liked 2 and 3 but this one is very different from them. think maybe a mix of the 1st one and terror firmer, that's probably a really lame description but definately watch this movie, you'll probably enjoy it.

Mo-Mann says: "Think maybe a mix of the 1st one and terror firmer, that's probably a really lame description..."

NO, SIR. That is an excellent description.

It sounds "WORTH WATCHING" as opposed to 95.5% of Toxic Avenger 2 & 3, which is the percentage that is "NOT".

I may have misquoted that slightly, it's been a few years...

Go watch CLASS OF NUKE'EM HIGH.

2 and 3 were horrendous by almost any standards, and not only is 4 better, but it is almost on par with the original. There are a few lame jokes in it, but overall it is a worthy sequel. The beginning of the fourth film is narrated by Stan Lee, and apologizes for the two "rotten sequels." This should give you some idea of how much better it is than 2 or 3. It is also far more offensive than the original, if that entices you.

I thought that was Stan Lee...it sounded like him, but I didn't see his name here on IMDB, so I assumed it was Hugh Heffner because of his association with this movie

Citizen Toxie is well worth seeing and is more in line with the first movie. The second and third movies are atrocious.

It's absolutely nothing like the first movie. OR 2 and 3. Like someone said it is quite similat to terror firmer, that film was made only a year before I think so that's probably why. It's probably my favourite out of all the movies.

Yeah, I'm tired of hearing it is closer to the first movie than the sequels. I watched it today for the first time and it is all out ridiculousness. I loved the first one, hated this sequels and thought this was okay.

I found myself laughing a few times but more often I found myself going, "that's kinda dumb". There were a ridiculous amount of *beep* jokes. So many people *beep* their pants! C'mon guys, you can do better than that.

I will watch it again and see if my feelings change, but as it stands this is just another sequel to an unparalleled classic.

Well, you have probably seen it at this point but the only similarities it had with the first film was the gory moments. And comparing it to Terror Firmer is perfect. Both films are incredibly outrageous. So much so that these films will only have a niche audience. I thought it was great though. Not quite as good as the first one but hands down to Troma for going all out to try and offend just about everyone and everything.

2 had its moments but unfortunately many of those moments were cut from the R rated version and the so called "Directors Cut" only adds in a few of the gory moments. There is a full uncut version that is worth getting just for the gore moments. Some of them had me on the floor. Part 3 was just awful... The only good moment in the movie was the first fight scene in, if I remember, was in a video store. Specifically when Toxie takes that broom handle and shoves it through the villains head and proceeds to twist his head off. That had me rolling. Too bad the rest of the film was boring and unfunny.



I'm just a guy that likes horror flicks.

It couldn't be less like 2 and 3.
